Hearing this, the two people in the yard were stunned.
"Shunyi ticket number?" Uncle Qi frowned and whispered, "What are they doing here..."
Yun Heng pursed his lips and responded in a low voice, "Maybe he's here to ask for the deposit!"
The next moment, the man who was still furious in the room rushed to the yard, with a flattering smile on his face, and shouted, "This is such a rare visitor, why does Shopkeeper Liu have time to come to my escort agency today?"
When Yun Heng heard this, he shrugged his shoulders uncomfortably and whispered, "This is an escort agency, not a brothel. Why are you hissing like an old bustard..."
Before Yun Heng could say anything, the soft flesh around his waist was pinched hard, and he grimaced in pain. Just about to get angry, he turned around to look into Uncle Qi's cold eyes, and his anger instantly went out.
Uncle Qi rolled his eyes at him, pulled him behind him, and whispered, "Stand still!"
When Yun Heng heard this, he shrank his neck and hid obediently behind Uncle Qi, like a wilted quail.
Shopkeeper Liu folded his hands in front of him, looked at the man with a sarcastic smile, "Boss Hou, don't you understand why I came here in person?"
Boss Hou's face fell and his smile disappeared, "What Shopkeeper Liu said is too profound, I didn't quite understand it."
Shopkeeper Liu sneered coldly and said in a low voice, "What's the point of pretending? Your Wantong Escort Agency lost its goods. According to the contract, you should pay me 10,000 taels of snowflake silver!"
"Liu, don't fall into the eyes of money!" Boss Hou spat and raised his voice, "The reason for losing the escort this time was because of someone's conspiracy. The superiors promised us three days, but even the Minister of Yuchi relented. The matter hasn't been fully investigated yet, so why are you saying these things to me?"
Shopkeeper Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, showing disdain, "Without my help, you won't be able to find out the rest of the story in three years!"
After saying this, shopkeeper Liu took out a piece of rice paper from his arms and slowly unfolded it. On it was a portrait of a human head.
"I heard that you lost the escort this time because someone stole it and replaced it. This truck was previously stored in our ticket number. Since the person behind it chose to attack the exterior, it has something to do with our ticket number."
Shopkeeper Liu held the piece of rice paper and whispered, "I have interrogated them one by one. Apart from the clerk in the store, this is the only one who has entered the backyard."
Yun Heng reacted and rushed to Shopkeeper Liu. He raised his hand to take the portrait and looked at it carefully.
In the portrait, the girl has a round face, a pair of big apricot eyes, thin lips, and a charming look. She looks childish, about sixteen or seventeen years old.
"Are you making fun of me?" Yun Heng frowned, with an angry look on his face, "Isn't she just a girl with a bigger butt! Looking at the skinny little girl, what evil can she do?"
"A girl with a bigger butt?" Shopkeeper Liu sneered, squinting at him and said quietly, "It's the girl you mentioned who sneaked into the ticket office without anyone noticing. There are more than 20 nursing homes in Shunyi Ticket Office. No one found her!"
Yun Heng paused, his eyes fell on the rice paper again, and he looked surprised, "This girl... is actually a master?"
"What if there's a spy among you?" Uncle Qi raised his eyes to look at Shopkeeper Liu, his voice was cold and hard, "It's not easy to remember the details of two trucks in a short time. If you want to keep everything from leaking to nothing, the only way to do it is to find someone inside your ticket number." Talent has this opportunity.”
"Absolutely impossible." Shopkeeper Liu shook his head with a calm expression, "I examined them one by one. The only one who had contact with this girl, Ying Hong, only took her to the latrine on my order. I don't know about the rest."
Uncle Qi narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, "What if one of you lied?"
Shopkeeper Liu found it funny and looked at her sarcastically, "I didn't expect that your Wantong Escort Agency would be so ungrateful. I helped you out of kindness, but you actually want to blame this matter on me?"
Boss Hou coughed twice, glared at Uncle Qi with dissatisfaction, and said loudly, "It was our negligence that led to a big mistake. Don't worry, we will definitely give the Shunyi ticket number an answer within three days." .”
Shopkeeper Liu stood there, with an imperceptible hook at the corner of his mouth, and said in a cold voice, "Then I will wait for your good news."
After finishing his words, he turned around and left without waiting for anyone to pay attention to him.
Boss Hou stared at his back and let out a loud sigh. Then he looked at Yun Heng, his face became even more depressed, and he yelled at the top of his voice, "Why are you still here watching the excitement? Why don't you hurry up and look for me in this city?" Girl!"
Yun Heng suddenly came to his senses, grabbed the rice paper, rushed out, and disappeared around the corner.

Duanyang Princess Mansion
The maid walked in with small steps, her body trembling unconsciously, and said softly, "Princess, Minister Yuchi is outside asking for an audience."
Duanyang was lying on his side on the imperial concubine's chair, spinning Buddhist beads in his hand. He didn't even raise his eyelids when he heard this, and said softly, "Yu Chiwei? What is he doing here?"
"I don't know what's going on." The maid trembled violently, and her voice had a tremor. "Servant Yuchi just said... that he had something to present to the princess..."
"Really?" Duanyang exhaled a breath of turbid air and looked bleak, "Then let him come in."
"Yes." The maid turned around and retreated, cold sweat already forming on her forehead.
After about a stick of incense, Yu Chiwei followed the slave and walked through half of the mansion before he saw Princess Duanyang.
"I have met Princess Duanyang." Yuchiwei saluted respectfully, his expression was normal.
Duanyang rubbed his nails, without raising his head, and said softly, "Get up."
"Thank you, princess." Yuchi Wei stood up, raised his chin, and stared straight at Duanyang.
Duanyang raised his eyelids and stared at him with an incomprehensible look, "Master Yuchi came hastily without any warning, but he caught me off guard."
After hearing this, Yu Chiwei lowered his head and smiled, and took out a jade token from his arms. Seeing Duanyang's face change suddenly, his smile became deeper, "Princess, can this thing be as good as a wooden folding piece?"
Duanyang sat up straight, with a murderous look in his eyes, and lowered his voice, "Where did you get this jade order?"
"If I remember correctly, this is the princess's personal token, right?" Yuchi Wei's smile was false, he played with the token in his hand and said with a smile, "Yesterday, I entrusted Wan Tong Ticket Number to deliver the goods for me, but I was on the way. After encountering the robbery escort, after careful investigation, I found this jade token. The princess said...is this a coincidence?"
"My token has been lost a long time ago, and I haven't found it after searching for a long time." Duanyang frowned, his expression calm, "and we just met each other, why should I target you?"
"I also find it strange." Yu Chiwei asked with a bold smile on his lips and raised his eyebrows, "Has the princess offended anyone?"
"My majestic princess, who dares..."
Halfway through the words, a figure suddenly flashed in his mind. Duanyang was stunned, and then he gritted his teeth and secretly exerted force on the hand holding the chair.
"Fang Xu..."
